Money See, Monkey Do

Mood: Happy hooray
Listening to: An irritating voice on the radio

Money's a funny thing.  It takes a shrewd business person, with guile, cunning a fat load of luck and some brass balls to become rich.  I mean really rich, trust fund rich.

You have to be smart, not Einstein smart, but street smart.  The kind of smarts that aren't taught but are needed. 

So the money is made, an empire born.  Kids come.  They don't have to work, they are lazy, horrible types you see on reality TV shows.  High on coke, spoilt, and obnoxious.  I generalise, I like to.

And they are mostly dumb.  At some level money seems to dumb these kids down.  They know it doesn't matter if they can't spell, can't find Africa on a map etc... who cares?

And then poor people try to immitate them...
